A demonstrator model (DM) of the Euclid's focal plane array (FPA) has been integrated at CPPM and tested at LAM facilities in Marseille (France). The aim of this first model of the NIDS is to demonstrate the validity of the integration procedure forseen for Euclid FPA, to check the behavior of the Sensor Chip System in a multidetector configuration and to demonstrate the system ability to support thermal cycles and vibration tests.

NISP Infra-red detectors and their Front End Read Out electronics will be provided to the Euclid consortium by the Teledyne Company. These SCS (Sensor chip System) consist of 3 sub-systems :
The SCA (Sensor Chip Array) is a 2K x 2K pixels of 18 μm pitch substrate removed, HgCdTe detector hybridized to an H2RG readout integrated circuit (ROIC).The SCE (Sensor Chip Electronics) is a Sidecar based Front-End Electronics, which provides all the needed biases for one SCA and digitizes, at 100 kHz and in parallel, 33 video signals coming from it. It is enclosed in a Titanium/CE9 package for thermal purposes and compatibility with Aluminum support structureFinally, the CFC (Cold Flex Circuit) connects the SCA to the SCE.
Tests conductedConducted EMC tests done on several biases :
VDDA, VREF, VDDIO, VSSIO, VDD and VDD3p3Frequencies of injection spanned from10 kHz to 100 MHzReference noise level of 30 ADU uncorrectedResultsDetector's noise mainly sensitive to noise injection in VDDA and VrefMain (around 50MHz)Injecting noise on other bias does not modify read noiseReference pixels correction method reduce the effect of the noise injection
Parameter Configuration
Bias 500 mV
Gain 18dB
Detector configuration for DM tests using EEF 2.0 firmware
ElectroMagnetic Compatiblity conducted tests consist ot the injection of noise at a given frequency and power and see how the system reacts
As expected VDDA and Vrefmain biases are the most sensitve, with a given noise at 50 MHz frequency.
Measured dark current within Euclid's specifications even with thepresence of glow within the detector's frame.
Stable acquisition system acquired more than 7TB of data During DM run, without critical error during acquisitions.
Integration took almost three weeks.
Conclusions on the Demonstrator Model run
Demonstrator Model succesfully integrated and tested in April 2015Multidetector acquisition system with Markury electronics and a homemande DAS proved to be stable during the testsDark and noise performances are within the specifications for Euclid's instrumentConducted EMC tests highlighted quite low sensitivity, except on VDDA and Vrefmain biases to 50MHz injections
No illumination in DM setupOnly dark and noise avalable for testingFull evaluation of performances forseen atEQM and FM level.

NI-SSS supports the SCEs. It is made of aluminum and fixed onto the P4 panel by 3 Invar blades. Composed of a main body and removable lid for integration purposes.

Electronics connected at LAM(ISO 5 cleanroom)
The spectro-photometer of the EUCLID mission contains several subsystems (calibration unit, filter/grisms wheels, mechanical assembly, optical alignment and focal plane).
The focal plane array of the NISP (NISP-FPA) is the mechanical support of the detector system (NI-DS).
NI-DS host 16 H2RG infrared detectors, each one will be integrated in this subsystem at CPPM before delivery to ESA in 2017
The NI-P4 interfaces the full NI-FPA with the NISP instrument. This panel, SiC made, is screwed directly onto the instrument and supports all the remaining parts of the NI-FPA
The NI-CSS (Cold Support Structure) supports the SCAs and ensures their co-planarity. Made of Molybdenum in order to ensure the best thermo-mechanical behavior given the structure of the SCAs. Fixed to P4 by 3 Titanium blades

Once integrated, these detectors will be tested for dark, noise performances and EMC
Demonstrator modelThe Demonstrator Model consisted on two seperate periods :At first the integration of the full instrument in both CPPM and LAM laboratories (three weeks), testing integration procedures of the whole system.Secondly, the test of the detectors on the DM, acquiring continuous data over the period to evaluate stability ofthe acquisition system and performances acheivable.
